A jet impinges on a splitter block. The incoming jet is horizontal and has a flow rate of Q1 = 8000 cm3/s and a cross-sectional area of A1 = 40 cm2. The block splits the jet in to two smaller jets. One is deflected upward by 45o, and has a flow rate of Q2 = 6000 cm3/s and a cross-sectional area of A2 = 30 cm2. The other jet is deflected downward by 45o, and has a flow rate of Q3 = 2000 cm3/s and a cross-sectional area of A3 = 10 cm2. You may assume that the pressure everywhere is equal to atmospheric pressure, and the density of the fluid is 1000 kg/m3. A)Find the horizontal momentum flux in, φ˙x,in B)Find the horizontal momentum flux out, φ˙x,out C)Find the horizontal force that the fluid exerts on the block FR,x
